LIVE CLUB : Simulates the feeling of a live music club with a low ceiling.

DSP modes have been designed to simulate different acoustic environments.
The sound heard in a hall, theater, pavilion, dance club, or live club consists of direct
and indirect sound —early reflections and reflections from behind.
Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. 
Indirect sounds are delayed by the distance of the ceiling and walls.
These indirect sounds are an important element of the acoustic surround effect.
